mint ~ # as a prompt means you are in mint's home directory BTW
you want to be in /mnt/gentoo before links or wget
note in links you must find file and the use D to download it_________________Defund the FCC.

edit: as a side note, those two movie player screens refuse to close. i do not have mouse and the right click on my touchpad is not responding in mint, so there is no other way (to my knowledge) of closing them.

then proceed to step 6b of the handbook to step 7c; recommend not editing /etc/portage/make.conf to add use flags
after gentoo-sources have emerged get a reliable stripped down basic kernel configuration from pappy's kernel seeds

are you now in the chroot? being in the chroot will have you running gentoo inside mint, if you performed all steps your prompt will have changed and ls -l will show the portage snapshot and tarball plus the gentoo directories with yesterday and today dates, if emerge --sync ran you are in the chroot
if so

Code:

emerge wgetpaste pciutils

should install those two programs for use in the gentoo system

apt-get is mint/ubuntu/ ; emerge is gentoo_________________Defund the FCC.
